Please join us for an intriguing program on management
issues in the modern law library.
HOT TOPIC Program (TS-SIS): Technical Services and the
Three Rs: Reinventing, Restructuring and
Renewing (TS-SIS Program) Tuesday, July 15, 2008 — 10:455-11:45 a.m.
Every department goes through change, and Technical
Services is no different. Recent news about an increasing amount of
departmental restructuring in academic libraries has been piquing interest
across the country. While some libraries have created more hierarchy in their
management structure, others have opted for a flat organization. Their choice
and changes in library practice have left many librarians wondering about the
future of their jobs and how restructuring changes the role of the technical
services librarian. During this hour-long discussion, our panelists will go
into detail about what motivates departmental restructuring in real life
situations. They will share advice about how to know when to restructure, as
well as how to help staff through the transition.
Panelists:
Barbara
Garavaglia, Assistant Director, University of Michigan Law Library; Paul Lomio,
Director, Robert Crown Law Library, Stanford Law School; Edward T. Hart,
Acquisitions and Serials Librarian, University of
Florida Lawton Chiles Legal Information Center. There will be time for
questions and answers.
